Halloween hair dye

Changing hair color is one of the most effective and favorite ways to transform yourself beyond recognition: bright colors involuntarily attract attention and make the image especially voluminous and successful. To prevent colored hair dye from harming your health or ruining your hairstyle, use safe washable dye for fun experiments. Instant hair dye comes in aerosol form and is applied extremely quickly and easily. The rich palette includes both neutral natural and overtly acidic shades. This allows a carnival participant to become the owner of hair of an unimaginable color or even flowers in a matter of minutes - it all depends on your imagination. The paint is washed off just as quickly and simply with plain water.

Wash-off spray hair color is a water-based tinting spray that is safe for hair.

In order for the image created for the Halloween holiday to be complete, it is necessary not only to choose a costume and do a suitable hairstyle, but also to do makeup. To create some images, you don’t even need makeup, but rather complex makeup.

Of course, if you have the opportunity to contact a professional make-up artist or make-up artist, the result will be magnificent. But in most cases, you can cope on your own.

Quite often it is necessary to make a white face for Halloween, since the main characters of this holiday should be deathly pale. This type of makeup must be done if you are creating the image of a vampire, skeleton, geisha, ghost bride, etc. Let's look at how you can whiten your face at home.

Choice of colors

What kind of white Halloween face paint can you use? The main requirement for the paints used is that they are completely safe for the skin. You need to understand that by applying paint to the skin that is not intended for leather, a person is at great risk. The body’s reaction can be unpredictable, and it’s good if everything ends with the formation of a rash on the face. A more severe allergic reaction, including fatal anaphylactic shock, may also develop.

Therefore, when planning to do makeup using paints for the first time, do not be lazy to conduct a simple sensitivity test. You just need to apply a couple of strokes of paint to the skin of your wrist or elbow and wait a couple of hours. If after removing the paint there are no traces of redness on the skin, then you can use this product.

What means do you use to paint your face on Halloween? Here are the possible options:

1. face painting;
2. theatrical makeup;
3. art paints: gouache, watercolor;
4. Flour-based home remedies.

Let's look at how to properly use these paint options.

Face painting

These are special water-based paints that are harmless to skin. This version of paints can be used even for children. Face painting is sold either like ordinary art paints in jars, or in dry form. In the latter case, it must be diluted with water.

If you plan to use the paint once or twice a year, then it is better to choose the option with powdered paints, since such makeup lasts longer. Face painting is sold in children's stores, entertainment centers and stores selling theater products.

Apply the paint using a sponge to cleansed and moisturized skin. If you want to make your skin look deathly pale, you can add a little blue or green to the white paint. It is better to apply makeup in two or three layers, the next layer should be applied after the previous one has dried. But since the makeup dries quickly, the makeup won’t take much time.

The makeup is washed off with plain water; if paint accidentally gets on your clothes, don’t worry, it washes off easily.

Theatrical makeup

Another good option is professional makeup, which is used by theater actors. This paint option can be purchased either in specialized stores or ordered online.

Theatrical makeup is not water-based, but fat-based. Therefore, it is more difficult to work with, but the effect is much better.

Rules for working with makeup:

1. It is recommended to cleanse the skin well first, preferably using a scrub or tonic;

1. then you need to apply a makeup base or any cream, you can use baby cream or Vaseline;

1. Make-up should be applied with a slightly damp sponge, trying to apply the product evenly without gaps or streaks;

1. After applying makeup, the skin must be powdered with loose white or transparent powder; you can use talc or rice flour.

Artistic paints

You can also make white makeup for Halloween using artistic paints. You can use gouache or watercolors. But applying acrylic paints to your face is strictly not recommended.

However, the use of artistic paints does not give the best results. Gouache strongly tightens the skin, watercolor adheres worse and takes a long time to dry, and you have to apply the paint in several layers.

But the most unpleasant thing is that the layer of artistic paint on the face begins to crack after drying. Therefore, you will need to try to keep your face still (don’t talk, don’t use facial expressions, etc.), which is extremely inconvenient at a holiday.

However, for some looks, a cracked layer of paint on the face can even come in handy. For example, the image of a zombie or a broken doll will only benefit from this. But the image of a geisha will be greatly spoiled by cracked paint on the face. To make a more permanent makeup, you should mix white gouache with Vaseline. You need to mix the substances in small portions.

It is strictly forbidden to use artistic paints to apply makeup to a child. These products are absolutely not suitable for children's skin.

Home paints

You can do your Halloween makeup using homemade paints, which are easy to prepare at home using flour, starch and other products. To make such paint, you need to mix flour or starch with baby cream, for three tablespoons of dry product you need to take a teaspoon of cream and a little water. The finished product is applied to the skin with a sponge. It fits well, but has a drawback: after drying, the flour may begin to crumble.

Thus, you can do white face makeup in a variety of ways, but you must not forget about safety.
